To edit the risk rating of a vulnerability you must have the relevant permissions.

1. Find the vulnerability where you wish to edit the risk.
2. Click the edit risk icon on the tip right of the vulnerability page.
   
3. A form will present itself and you can adjust the risk as required.
   
4. Record the new risk rating and the reason for a change. This will get logged to the audit trail as well as the users ID and the date/time.
   
5. Once this is updated by confirming on the button on the bottom right, it will be reflected as a new risk against the vulnerability with an adjusted risk indicator.
   
6. If you hover over the risk, you can see the reason for the risk change.
